Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which is true of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?
A
Prokaryotic cells are larger than eukaryotic cells.
B
Eukaryotic cells do not have nucleus, and prokaryotic cells do have nuclei.
C
Prokaryotic cells lack membrane-bound organelles, and eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles.
D
Eukaryotic cells are simpler than prokaryotic cells.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Prokaryotic cells are surrounded by a plasma membrane, but they have no internal membrane-bound organelles within their cytoplasm. The absence of a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles differentiates prokaryotes from another class of organisms called eukaryotes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Prokaryotes are always unicellular, while eukaryotes are often multi-celled organisms. Additionally, eukaryotic cells are more than 100 to 10, 000 times larger than prokaryotic cells and are much more complex. The DNA in eukaryotes is stored within the nucleus, while DNA is stored in the cytoplasm of prokaryotes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles, such as the nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not.

Detailed explanation-4: -Explanation: Prokaryotic cells differ from eukaryotic cells in that they lack any membrane-bound organelles, including a nucleus.

Detailed explanation-5: -Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles, including a nucleus. Eukaryotes can be single-celled or multi-celled, such as you, me, plants, fungi, and insects. Bacteria are an example of prokaryotes. Prokaryotic cells do not contain a well-defined nucleus or any other membrane-bound organelle.
